Evangeline Lewis from Leather and Lace

Tell me a little about yourself and
the world you live in.

I work as an exotic dancer at The
Glass Slipper to make ends meet. Boston
is my home. I live in a small
apartment on Dartmouth in the South End.

Do you like your job?

I find there is a kind of power in
dancing. I can take on a different
role. It is nice to step away from my
problems for a time and lose myself in the music.

Tell us about your single most
important memory. What was it and how does it affect you now?

It was just after my parents’ car
accident. A social worker came and
started talking to me and my sister Sherrie.
When the woman walked away, Sherrie looked at me and said, “Do you think
they’re going to separate us?” I shook
my head and told her, “They can’t. I
promise I’ll always take care of you. Do
you believe me?” But, life never quite
works out the way you planned, does it?
I can never forget that trust I saw in her eyes then.

What type of person are you?
Are you a hero or do you shy away from conflict?

I don’t like conflict exactly, but I
have a stubborn streak. I’m a
survivor. And I will fight for what’s
right.

Do you have any hobbies, any special
talents?

I like to draw and paint in my spare
time. I used to do it quite a lot.

And in that line, what would be your
ideal day?

My ideal day would be to unwind
after work, turn on some soft music and listen to it play in background while I
make a good home cooked meal.

Do you have anyone close to you, any
family or friends of interest?

There is my sister Sherrie, but I
haven’t seen her for awhile. No, I guess
no one that close. I get along with the
girls at the club though.

What is your most prized possession?

I keep all of the letters Sherrie
and I used to write to each other in a shoe box.

What initially spurred your actions
in this story. Obviously it had to start somewhere for you, give us an
idea of where that starting point is and where it all started.

I saw something I shouldn’t
have. Since then, I have been in a tight
place. When I saw the crime happening, I
couldn’t prevent myself from responding.
And that’s when I met Patrick.

How do you envision your
future?

I guess I don’t really think about
it. I’m just trying to live from one day
to next, hoping that at some point, I can get out of this mess.
